Tires and plugs
Two questions; what was the last year for all white tires? And should all model T's have a drain plug on the Rear end ?

Re: 1913 model T
I have no plans to change anything on the car. I love it just the way it is. For educational purposes I tell people it is pretty much the way a model T was in 1913. I was just curious as to how correct it was, but none of it matters as long as the differences aren't striking. I would like to get a s...

Re: 1913 model T
I do not plan on showing it, I just like driving it. It is my third model T. I sold the other two to buy this one. I was just curious as to how Correct it is. I realize original was the wrong term. So is it true that all 1913's came with a speedometer? The gas headlights will be operational soon. I ...

Re: Downtown abbey
James, thank you for that link showing all the vehicles in the entire series. It answers a lot of questions for me. It's interesting that some of the photos titled "unidentified vehicle" are obviously brass era T's

Lots of other cars whose brands I am not sure of. It's fun watching the show just to try and identify cars. I'm pretty sur...
